Every time we ask for visa liberalisation, I demand that there be patience. I know patience has limits, but I have an important message I want to give to the government and institutions”, Apostolova said at KTV.
It has shown that Kosovo has fulfilled the 95 criteria that are required by the Commission, but as time passes, all 95 criteria must be maintained.
“These criteria are set to bring Kosovo closer to European standards in fighting corruption and organised crime. What is needed is for criteria to be maintained, because only in this way will EU member states be convinced that Kosovo is willing to gain visa liberalisation”, she has said.
